The effects of acid rain are most prominent in aquatic environments such as lakes, rivers, creeks and marches. However, acid precipitation is increasingly damaging forest ecosystems through the leeching of soil nutrients and weakening of trees' natural defenses.
An aspiring surgical nurse who seeks a more thorough education might pursue a Bachelor of Science in Nursing, a 4-year degree program that includes two years of supervised clinical practice in a hospital or another healthcare facility.
It can take at least eight years to become a CNM: four years for a bachelorâs degree, one year of nursing experience, and three years in a nurse midwifery program. Some CNMs may take less or more time to gain certification and licensure. Becoming a CM may take slightly less time, as nursing experience is not required.
